BHPian bharatbits<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n Hello all<\/p>\n What car should I buy? I am quite confused.<\/p>\n I am an NRI, visit Hyderabad once or twice every month for 5 to 10 days on each visit. Usage in each visit would be about 500 to 1000 km if not more. That\u2019s about 100 days in a year and my usage would be about 7500 km in a year.<\/p>\n I currently own a 2013 Ford Fiesta, manual, diesel at 88,000 km with no major problems. Poor roads, heavy traffic, manual cars and image – these are the reasons I am looking to buy a bigger, diesel, automatic, white SUV. I also feel left knee pain when I drive the manual car. I am 35 years old now. I don\u2019t want it to become a major problem as I age further especially when I can afford to buy an automatic car now. Constantly having a driver around me is not really practical when I am in India. The freedom, privacy and convenience you get when you can drive your automatic yourself is priceless.<\/p>\n I am looking at Tata Hexa, XUV 500 and similar cars. Open to older Fortuners too. Isuzu MUX etc. White, diesel, automatic, 7 seater SUVs, image are my preferences. I drive a Ford Ranger truck in Dubai now if it is of any help in the decision-making process.<\/p>\n Budget around 10 lakhs INR. Maybe a little more depending on the car.<\/p>\n I plan to leave my car with my BIL when I am not here. He has 2 Crystas, Vento and Swift for work and personal use. I have to encourage them to use my car too once in a while and take care of it. They have open parking for their cars in front of their villa. No restriction as such on the number of cars they can park.<\/p>\n Hope to hear your valuable input.<\/p>\n Here’s what BHPian bijims<\/strong> had to say on the matter:<\/p>\n A used Hexa or XUV500 at under 10 lakhs won’t give you a “great” image, it is quite evident that these are old and moreover have been discontinued as well, To add to that Tata and Mahindra don’t have as good a brand image as the Japanese, American or European brands. For a dependable machine, I would suggest a Fortuner, but getting good examples under 10 lakhs would be a task in itself, increasing your budget for a well-maintained car is the best option.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Here’s what BHPian revsperminute<\/strong> had to say on the matter:<\/p>\n 7500km\/year is not \u2018very low\u2019 usage. But it is low enough to get by with a petrol SUV.<\/p>\n Why not pick the darling of NRIs? The Honda CRV. There\u2019s a reason why CRVs, Accords and Camrys are so popular among NRIs. They don\u2019t mind being parked up for a long time, spring back into service at a moment\u2019s notice and you won\u2019t find yourself at the service centre during the few precious days you visit India. A 2.4 AWD CRV is a very accomplished vehicle and typically sees very sophisticated usage so buying one in the pew-owned market is a very safe bet.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n Source: Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am looking at Tata Hexa, XUV500 and similar cars.
